Huntingdale Boulevard Townhouses: A 1972 L’Amoreaux Complex, Reviewed

Huntingdale Boulevard Townhouses is one of the older condominium townhouse complexes in Scarborough, and that is exactly why some buyers should look at it and others should not. It was registered in 1972, it has 105 homes, and it sits a short walk from Bridlewood Mall in a pocket that the City has already studied for change. If you want stairs, a front door and a price below freehold, it deserves a careful look. I’m Jatin Dua, RE/MAX Quantum Realty.

A first-generation condo townhouse complex

The YCC prefix tells you a lot. York Condominium Corporations were registered in the early years of condominium law in Ontario, and YCC-83 is one of the lower numbers in that series. In practical terms, this complex was among the first wave of condominium townhouses built for families in Scarborough.

That age cuts both ways. On the plus side, the corporation has more than fifty years of history, so there is a long paper trail of budgets, reserve fund studies and board minutes for you to read. On the other side, almost every original exterior component has either been replaced already or is coming due. Your job as a buyer is to find out which.

The address range, 75 to 283 Huntingdale Boulevard, also tells you this is a spread-out site with homes along a private road network rather than a single building. Roads, walkways, grass and snow clearing are typically common costs in a complex like this, and so are the big-ticket repairs that come with them.

The parking garage question

Condos.ca lists a parking garage for this complex, along with visitor parking. In a 1970s townhouse community, that can mean two very different things: a garage attached to each home, or a shared underground garage that serves several rows of units. The difference matters a great deal for your fee.

If parking here is a shared underground structure, the waterproofing membrane, the concrete slab and the drainage are some of the most expensive items any condominium corporation ever pays for. Ask the manager directly how parking is laid out, how many spaces come with each unit, and when the garage was last repaired or rewaterproofed. The reserve fund study should show the planned cost and the year.

If each home has its own garage, ask who is responsible for the garage door, the floor and the driveway. Every declaration draws that line differently, and I would not assume anything until you have read it.

What is changing around Finch and Warden

The complex is close to Bridlewood Mall at 2900 Warden Avenue, which opened in 1975 and still carries a grocery store, a pharmacy and a public library. According to Wikipedia, the library moved into a larger space in the mall in 2024, growing to roughly 20,000 square feet. For a family in a townhouse, an everyday mall within walking distance is a real convenience.

The City of Toronto has also looked hard at this intersection. Its Finch Warden Revitalization Study set a 10-to-20-year vision for the area, with taller buildings at key sites along Finch and Warden, mid-rise elsewhere, and low-rise townhouses as a transition next to existing homes. It also called for wider sidewalks, more street trees and better crossings.

New townhouses are already arriving on the same street. UrbanToronto reported in 2022 that Profile Developments broke ground on 81 townhouses at 3079 Pharmacy Avenue, on the north side of Finch, replacing a one-storey plaza and placing an outdoor amenity space facing Huntingdale Boulevard. When you are comparing prices, that new product is your real competition, and the gap in price between new and 1972 stock is the whole value argument here.

Who manages it, and what to ask them

Condos.ca lists Shiu Pong Management as the property manager. Before you firm up an offer, ask the manager for the current budget, the most recent reserve fund study and its date, and the last two years of board minutes. In an older complex, the minutes are where you will see the projects being discussed before they show up as fee increases.

I could not find a published list of what the monthly fee covers, and I could not find any pet or rental rules. Do not rely on a listing description for either. Read the declaration, by-laws and rules in the status certificate, and have your lawyer review them before your conditions come off.

What Huntingdale Boulevard Townhouses costs

There were no units listed for sale or for lease when I checked, so I cannot give you a current asking range. Condos.ca also does not publish square footage or an average price per square foot for this complex, which means a clean per-square-foot comparison with nearby apartments is not possible from public data.

What I can tell you is how to think about it. A 1972 condo townhouse should trade at a clear discount to new townhouses nearby, such as the Profile Developments project on Pharmacy, and to freehold homes on the surrounding streets. If the discount is small, you are paying close to new-build money for fifty-year-old building envelopes.

Monthly fees in older Scarborough townhouse complexes vary widely depending on what they include and how well the reserve fund has been kept up. A low fee in an underfunded complex is not a bargain. If you want the actual recorded sales here rather than asking prices, I can pull them through my building sold report.

Amenities at Huntingdale Boulevard Townhouses

There is no pool, gym or party room listed here, and in a 1972 complex that is a good thing. More of the fee can go to roofs, roads, windows and parking, which are what actually hold the value of an older townhouse.
